Hello all.

I'm struggling to get Centos 4 to recognize my Dell Powervaul 132T tape
changer. The system doesnt create a device node for it.

[root@orion scotty]# cat /proc/scsi/scsi
Attached devices:

It does recognize the tape device as sg1, but not the changer


[root@orion scotty]# /usr/sbin/mtx -f /dev/sg1 inquiry
Product Type: Tape Drive
Vendor ID: 'IBM     '
Product ID: 'ULTRIUM-TD2     '
Revision: '37RH'
Attached Changer: No

I corrected the typo in the /etc/hotplug/scsi.agent file:

--> 8) TYPE=changer ; MOUDLE=sg ;;
corrected to --> 8) TYPE=changer ; MODULE=sg ;;

and also added the following line to /etc/modprobe.conf

options scsi_mod max_luns=128

I rebuilt the initrd but it still doest work.

If anyone could point me in the right direction i'd be really thankfull

Cheers thanks in advance.
